Python can be used to achieve results similar to Octave or Matlab. Additionally to numerical computation, packages allow to solve linear systems.
Numerical computation with Python mainly bases on the following libraries:
The Spyder IDE provides a MATLAB-like development interface. As a simple alternative, IPython provides a web-based GUI and Mathematica-like notebooks.
Installation
Linux
Installation can be done on a package basis, with easy_install or pip.
Install the IDE:
sudo apt-get install spyder
This also installs numPy, sciPy and matplotlib.
Launch Spyder, and in the console type:
t = linspace(0, 10, 100); plot(t, sin(t));
Windows
Download Python(x,y).
This will allow to install Python and other components of your choice.
